Set sail with USA Today bestselling author R.S. Grey in this sizzling romance between old rivals who reunite on a cruise ship, only to discover that they want much more than just another competition.
Casey Hughes is a struggling travel journalist desperate for a big break when she lands the assignment of a lifetime: hop on board Aurelia for its maiden voyage through paradise. While she’ll bask in the luxury cruise ship’s fine dining and complimentary spa treatments, her real mission is to snag an exclusive interview with Phillip Woodmont.
Casey and the elusive shipping heir have history. Once, they were nothing short of brutal enemies. Though the former brace-faced teen is now a suited-up CEO with devastating good looks, he makes it clear to Casey that he has no interest in forgetting their past.
The volatile grudge between them is as explosive as ever. More than once Casey is tempted to toss Phillip overboard, but for her work, she’ll have to swallow her pride. If it’s an apology he’s after, she’ll serve it up on a silver platter. If he wants her to walk the plank, she’ll salute with an aye, aye, Captain.
Casey can’t let him provoke her. She needs this interview. So if Phillip wants to play dirty, Casey will just have to play dirtier.

My Princess is determined to stay as far away from me as possible. Eighteen months ago, she wanted me, but now sheโs convinced Iโm bad news.
The thing is, an attraction like ours doesnโt just fade, and my need for her has only grown stronger no matter how many times she offers me a scowl instead of her beautiful smile.
Weโve been playing a game of cat and mouse since the day she wore my jersey, and fortunately for her, I love the chase. I love to watch the way her body reacts to mine. Iโd fall to my knees in front of her if I didnโt think sheโd kick me while Iโm down and unearth painful memories from my past that Iโve worked to keep hidden for so long.
Iโm not the only one with secrets and a hurtful past, though. The walls sheโs built around her are so high that I doubt anyone can see the real Kate. But I can; I see it all. I know what makes my girl tick and what she truly wants from life. I was just waiting for a chance to prove it.
And now that itโs here, Iโm going all in to make Kate Violet Monroe fall in love with me.

When life throws you a curveball, you hit it out of the park.
Iโd never been as wrong as I was when I assumed the Rogues had betrayed me. Now the true culprits were on my hit listโwhich was, at the moment, dormant. While an impossibly archaic threat hung over Stellaโs head, there was nothing to be done but wait.
The Rogues were back in my life in private, but I had to endure the public spectacle of those intolerable Roguettes reclaiming their social positionsโฆand my boys. Even though I knew it was a ruse, anger coursed through me every time the queen bee touched my man.
Not fearing any consequences, Charlotte and her cronies pushed me past my breaking point. I gave them a beating they wonโt soon forget, but my satisfaction was short-lived. Jail had a way of sucking the pleasure right out of you.
But not the determination.
We would break the chains that bound us and be free. Free to be together. Free to live our lives.
No more sitting on the bench. Itโs time to play ball.

โOn a scale of one to tenโโ he says, and heโs so close I can feel his breath on me. My chest moves up and down as my fingers tingle on his pecs.
โTen,โ I answer, not knowing what the rest of the question is.
โHow drunk are you?โ The question makes me laugh.
โOh.โ I shake my head. โTwo.โ I lift my hand from his hard chest but quickly move it back. โMaybe three. Definitely not a four.โ
โWhat did you think I was going to ask you?โ His hands come up to hold my hips, and I hate itโs not brighter so I can see his eyes.
โI thought you were going to ask me on a scale of one to ten, how much do you want me to kiss you right now?โ I want to kick my own ass for admitting that. What the hell was in that drink, truth serum?
โAnd you answered ten, Zara?โ The softness of his voice makes shivers run through me.
โI did, Gabriel.โ I use his name, taking a step closer to him, squishing my hand between us. โI sure did.โ

But when push comes to shove, I’ve gotta help a girl out
But not just any girl
Autumn Davenport
She needs a husband, and I need to get my family off my back
It seems like a win-win situationโฆ
Weโre friends
We like each other
But weโve never been this close
Husband and wife
Now Iโm questioning what I signed up for
Autumn is smart, funny and beautiful
She has the world at her feet, and she could get any man she wanted
Except the man her family have lined up for her isnโt who she wants
So I offer to be her husband
Weโre both off the hookโฆ Even if it is temporarily
Clearly I didnโt think this through
It didnโt occur to me exactly how close weโd have to get
Living together proves to be a strain on everything; especially my libido
And when I really get to the heart of the girl Iโve known for yearsโฆ
I fall hard
Even though that isnโt part of the planโฆ My heart doesnโt care about any of that
It wants what it wants
The only trouble is, sheโs not only my best friendโฆ Sheโs also older and a little bossyโฆ Something I didnโt know I was into until I married her
Now I want to keep her
My wife
The woman who captured my heart without me even realizing
And when our deal is upโฆ Can I summon the courage to tell her how I feel?
Or will I lose her forever?
The Bassett Brothers Bourbon Distillery; Stoney Creekโs very own pride and joy, and the heart and soul of a small town Tennessee family business.
๐งกReview๐งก When Autumn finds herself in a difficult situation financially, she knows that being able to access her trust fund would solve her problems however one of the caveats is being married. Needing a husband there is one man she can both trust and count on and he happens to be her best friend, Beau.
Beau would do anything for Autumn and that includes a marriage of convenience especially when it will help him with his matchmaking family. What he wasnโt expecting was to see how living with Autumn as a couple gave him a glimpse of what life could be like and how he never wanted it to end.

But I dream of him chanting and panting my name too.
Lettie:
Since second grade when Dane used to pull my hair and chase me around the art table, we’ve ben inseparable.
The only girl at his birthday parties. The only boy allowed in my room. Camping. Swimming. Riding. You name it, we’ve done it together, except the one thing.
How can I focus on punching my ticket to the Olympics and earning a gold medal in Equestrian if I can’t get Dane out of my head and into bed? But I owe him my life and I can’t wreck it on a whim…an uncontrollable feeling.
Dane:
Weโre graduating this year and if it goes as planned, Iโll be off to the NBA.
Iโve had it all mapped out since I was ten to have Lettie by my side. And now I want so much more. Unfortunately, she canโt take a hint and rather than lose my best friend, I watch my teammates make her blush.
When I finally make my move, will fear of losing two decades of friendship keep us from stepping out of bounds from best friends to lovers? Or will we stand on the line, look at the basket and shoot to win it all?
๐ฅTwists & Turns you love from an Aly Martinez novel!
๐ฅEmotionally Gripping
๐ฅRomantic Thriller
From the USA TODAY bestselling author of From the Embers comes a new jaw-dropping standalone romance.
Pain trapped me in this house. Can love set me free?
Death had been chasing me my entire life. I survived the horrors of war, but it was the aftermath that truly destroyed me.
People called me a recluse, but the only time I didnโt feel like I was suffocating was inside that house.
For my daughter, I kept some semblance of normalcy by implementing a rigid routine. Once a week, I forced myself to walk to the diner at the end of the blockโa ritual I despised but relied on as my last anchor to the real world.
Until the day a โClosedโ sign on the door shattered my fragile existence. Worse, the new owner was the most haunting ghost from my past.
It had been years since Iโd laid eyes on Gwendolyn Pierce. She hated meโand rightly so. But when a film crew arrived in town to dig into my past, she became my only ally.
With my secrets threatened, I leaned on Gwen, forging a connection neither of us could deny. But with a past as dark as ours, I feared it would eclipse any hope for a future.
I always said that when Death finally came for me, I would be ready, eager, and alone. Always alone.
But for Gwen, maybe I could face the world again as long as it meant I could be aloneโwith her.
Iโve known Mia Powell since the day she was born.
Sheโs my sisterโs best friend, my momโs God-daughter and the mother of the sweetest two-year old Iโve ever met. Even if she won’t reveal who his father is.
When she unexpectedly needs a place to stay, I donโt hesitate to offer up my house on the family ranch. However, I didnโt anticipate Miaโs new boss mistaking me for her husband and the father of her child.
The secrets between us may keep us apart in the real world, but a fake relationship… that’s a role I’m happy to play for her.
At least until the lines between fantasy and reality begin to blur.
I never shouldโve stolen that first kiss. Never should have thought one night would get her out of my system. Never should have grown so attached to her little boy.
When this is all over, Mia and her son will walk away with my heart.
It doesnโt matter though, itโs always belonged to her.
